The passage 3 1 1 , the curved flow passage 3 2 1 , the intermediate flow passage 3 3 1 , the curved flow passage 3 2 1 and the connecting flow passage 3 1 1 are connected to each other to form a return passage, and the inner diameter of the connecting flow passage 3 1 1 The diameter of the rolling element 4 2 1 and the intermediate flow channel 3 3 1 is greater than the maximum width R of the chain 4 1 , and the bearing 13 201017003 is connected to the flow path 3 1 The inner diameter d of 1 is smaller than the curved flow path and The inner diameter D of the rudder is larger than the diameter of the rolling member 42; the engaging portion 3 1 is inserted into the mounting groove 2 1, so that the return channel and the negative load path are connected to form a circulation path. The rolling module 4 is disposed in the circulation path; the two connecting channels 3 1 1 are each provided with a guiding groove 34, and one end of the guiding groove 34 is connected with the guiding space. The other end is connected to the curved flow channel 3 2 1 , and the guiding groove p 34 includes a first guiding groove 341 , a second guiding groove 342 and a third guiding groove 343 . The second guiding groove 3 42 The first guiding slot 341 and the third guiding slot 3 43 each have a width greater than the second guiding slot 3 4 . a width of 2, as described above, the third guiding groove 343 is larger than the inner width of the second guiding groove 342, which is equal to the inner diameter of the curved flow path 321, and the first guiding groove The other end of the 341 and the third guiding groove 34 3 is connected to the second guiding groove 342. 3, please refer to the seventh A, B, C, D, eighth and ninth diagrams, the two guiding grooves 34 of the present invention are designed with a variable cross section (such as the seventh A, B, c, d shows), the configuration of the two guiding grooves 34 is similar to the two small funnels with small diameters to join each other 'in the two funnels into sections, and the two half funnels 201017003 and two The guiding groove 34 is approximated. Referring to FIG. 8 again, the figure shows how the guiding groove 34 guides the connecting portion 4 1 of the chain 4 1 , and when the chain 4 1 runs to the third guiding slot 3 4 3 , because the first The three guiding grooves 3 4 3 are a large-to-small variable cross-section design (the large opening is connected to the curved flow channel 3 2 1), so the connection 4 11 will follow the third guiding groove 3 4 3 The tapered section is guided into the second guiding groove 3 4 2 ', and then enters the first guiding φ guiding groove 3 4 1 ', and then enters the guiding space of the shaft 1 and the nut 2; and the chain 4 The method of entering the return channel is to guide the connecting portion 4 into the second guiding slot 342 and then enter the third guiding slot 34 by the variable cross-sectional design of the first guiding slot 341. 3 'further' enters the curved flow path 3 2 1 and the intermediate flow path 3 3 1 returns to the curved flow path 3 2 1 , and the chain 3 4 is not affected by the curved flow path 3 2 1 and the intermediate flow path 3 3 1 Any restraint can be freely twisted and turned, and then enters the connecting flow path 3ii, and the chain 4 1 is smoothly guided into the load path by the guiding groove 34 to complete the reflow. In addition, the variable guiding surface design of the first guiding slot 34 1 is mainly capable of absorbing the error of the cooperation between the first guiding slot 341 and the guiding space, so that the first guiding slot 3 4 i is connected with the guiding space There will be no breaks. Finally, please refer to the ninth figure, in order to make the chain 41 1 smoother and unconstrained when twisting, the length of the chain 4 1 of the present invention can be designed to be less than or equal to 15 201017003 • - a connecting channel 3 1 1 , the total length of the curved flow path 3 2 1 and the intermediate path 3 3 1 , and the design enables one end W of the key strip 41 to enter the connecting flow path 3 at one end, the chain 4 The other end N of 1 has left the other end to connect the flow channel 3 1 1. Thus, one end of the chain 4 1 is a free end, so the end can solve the problem of excessive twisting of the chain 4 1 and make the chain 4 cycle more. For smoothness, the most important thing is to extend the life of the chain 4丄. Referring to FIG. 10 again, in another embodiment of the present invention, the main difference between the embodiment and the previous embodiment is the design of the guiding slot 3 4 A, and the guiding slot 3 4A includes the first guiding. The groove 3 4 1A and the second guiding groove 342A, the width τ of one end of the second guiding groove 342 A is greater than the width h of the first guiding groove 34, and the end is equal to the curved flow The inner diameter of the channel 321 is D, and the other end is connected to the first guiding groove 34i a. However, the design of the first guiding groove 341A and the guiding space at the junction of the guiding space is not the same as that of the first embodiment, because the size of the first guiding and guiding space is only required. Designed and processed accurately, there will be no gaps between the two joints, so it will not ignite the smoothness of the chain. Bay 16 201017003 Finally, although the invention emphasizes that only the guiding channel is provided with the guiding groove, for the reflow element of the smaller ball screw, the connecting flow path of the reflow element becomes shorter and relatively available. The length of the guiding groove is slightly insufficient, because the design of the guiding groove is a variable cross-section design, so if the length is too short, the effect of guiding the connecting portion of the chain will be induced; therefore, for the connecting flow path 5倍倍。 The length of the curved flow channel is 0.5 times the total length of the curved flow channel, the optimal length of the curved flow channel is 0.5 times. The length, in this way, can improve the guiding function of the guiding slot, and if it exceeds this range, the chain operation may be affected. In view of the above, the present invention greatly improves the smoothness of the rolling module running on the return channel of the Liu component, and improves the service life of the chain together, so the "industrial availability" of the present invention should be unquestionable. In addition, the feature technology disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention has not been seen in publications before the application, nor has it been used publicly, not only has the fact that the effect is improved as described above, but also has an additional effect that cannot be neglected. Therefore, the "novelty" and "progressiveness" of the present invention have been in compliance with the patent regulations, and the application for invention patents has been filed according to law, and it is prayed for review and early granting of patents. 17 201017003 The above description of the embodiments is intended to be illustrative of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
